Access & Banyan VINES

[Torie]

I have a shared MS Access 2002 database that has it
backend (table file) stored on a common Banyan VINES
network share. Recently the Banyan network experienced
some problems with connectivity but those issues have
since been resolved. However ever since this shared
database is only working in "read-only" mode meaning users
have the ability to open the database but can not edit or
modify any records. There are constant messages
about "recordsets not being updateable".

Does this sound familiar to anyone? The database worked
fine before however is anyone aware of any known issues
between MS Access and Banyan VINES networks?

I doubt that the problem is specific to Banyan VINES.
Here are some things you can do:
Check for Read-Only status for that file in the Windows Explorer.
Compact and Repair the database.
Check that your users have appropriate permissions for that directory -
they will need read, write, create, and delete permissions.
